Inspects a friend, raises an eyebrow Tattoos already? sigh The hell is this?
nods approvingly Yes, tattoos can be quite cool if done tastefully. Just make sure it doesn't go against our rules. turns to inspect another friend
Oh wow, there's a rule about tattoos too? Are they really that strict?
smirks Of course they are. Our family has standards to maintain. No half-assed ink on our turf.
laughs nervously Yeah, I guess I understand. Family first, right?
leans in close, voice low That's right. Family comes before everything else.
still laughing God, your family is intense. But hey, I get it. Family is important.
grips your shoulder tightly You think we're intense? You haven't seen anything yet. Our family is the most feared in this city.
Oh, shit! That's... intimidating. But cool, I guess. Cool and scary, like some sort of anime gangster. I respect that.
smiles, releasing your shoulder Good. It's always good to have respect. Now, let's get back to business.
Ok, alright. What's next on the agenda, Mr. Kanda?
We need to talk about your future. It's time you took on more responsibility within the family. I've arranged a meeting with the boss tomorrow.
Woah, boss meeting? That's big. What's the deal?
You've proven yourself capable, so it's time you learn the ropes. Tomorrow, you'll meet with the boss and discuss your role in the family.
Fuck, that's... big time. Can I handle this?
smirks You may not know yet, but I believe in you. You've come a long way since joining us.
smiling broadly Thanks, Mr. Kanda. I won't let you down.
Good. Show me that you're worthy of being part of this family. Prepare yourself for tomorrow's meeting.
grabs Stranger's arm We will start by practicing etiquette. You must dress the part if you want to impress the boss.
leads Stranger to his closet We'll find something suitable for you. First, let's see what we have here.
looking around, wide-eyed Holy crap, Mr. Kanda! Your closet is like a freaking store! You've got everything a guy could want!
smirks Of course I do. A man must always be well-dressed, especially when representing the family. Let's find something that suits you.
Alright, let's try this suit on. It should fit you nicely. hands Stranger the suit
approves with a nod Good choice. Now, let's work on your posture. Stand straight and proud. Remember, you represent the family.
adjusts his tie and straightens his posture Like this, Mr. Kanda?
Perfect. Remember, confidence is key. Walk with purpose and conviction. watches as Stranger practices walking
he walks like a confident person
Good, good. But remember, it's not just about how you walk, it's about the way you carry yourself. Act with poise and authority. places a hand on Stranger's shoulder Let's practice a few scenarios. How would you introduce yourself to the boss?
What if he asks me personal questions, Mr. Kanda? I don't want to fuck this up.
Don't worry, Stranger. Personal questions are common in these situations. Just remember to stay calm and composed. Use your past experiences to guide your answers. Practice makes perfect. Let's run through a few scenarios together. First, tell me about a time when you had to overcome a difficult challenge.
When I was a kid, my dad used to take me hiking. One time, we got lost in the woods. Had to find our way out before nightfall. It was tough, but we made it.
Good start, Stranger. Now, let's go a bit deeper. What did you learn from that experience? How did it shape you into the person you are today?
I learned to never give up. No matter how tough things get, you've always got to keep pushing forward. It's like climbing a mountain - you can't see the top, but you know it's there. That experience taught me to stay focused and keep moving forward, even when things seem impossible.
Excellent, Stranger. That answer shows strength and resilience. Keep building on that foundation. Now, let's move on to another scenario.
Remember, Stranger, you're not just representing yourself here. You're representing our entire family. So, let's focus on some hypothetical situations that might arise during the meeting. Imagine the boss asks you about your loyalty to the family. How would you respond?
I would say that my loyalty to the family is unwavering. I've dedicated myself to this cause, and I won't let anything or anyone jeopardize that.
Good, good. Unwavering loyalty is essential in our line of work. But be prepared for tougher questions.
Sure thing, Mr. Kanda. I'm ready.
Alright, Stranger. Let's dive into the deep end now. Imagine the boss asks you about your past mistakes. How would you handle that?
...uh...well, there was this one time when I got involved with the wrong crowd. Things got out of hand pretty quickly. I learned my lesson though, and I've stayed away from that kind of stuff ever since.
narrows his eyes Are you sure that's all there is to it, Stranger?
...There might be more to it than I'm letting on.
sits down across from Stranger Look, Stranger, we all have skeletons in our closet. But you have to be honest with the boss. If you hold back, it will only raise suspicions. Trust me, it's better to be upfront about your mistakes. The boss wants to see that you've learned from them and that you're committed to making things right. Now, tell me everything. What happened back then?
